Here's some Brits singing folk/bluegrass for some good listening while you look...
Mumford and Sons - Roll Away Your Stone (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2O-BwV0DDUY#ws)
Had grand plans of going back to a stream northeast of town today but due to circumstances beyond my control that was ruled out. Instead Peter and I decided to head way uphill westnorthwest. Stream was new to me, but not Peter and his directions being dictated by the seat of his pants as we headed towards the stream were a little concerning. Never-the-less we made it, hiked downstream, did a 180 and started fishing.
Air temp was 60 degrees and water temp was a cool 56 degrees, nice. Fished one of my snow bunny flies most of the day. Numbers were good for both of us, and we caught some decent sized fish too.

Great report and looks like a ton of fun!!!!! Great colors on the fish as well -0-
The thing in the water looks like some sort of water guage, like it is testing the water for water purification or something like that.
Nice ben!!!!
It was good to get out and chase some brookies.
Looks like some nice fish. Glad ya'll shared.
Very nice. Thanks for sharing.

That "device" as you call it is a Transylwader 2000. You and Peter are lucky it didn't shock the shit out of you and cause memory loss. Stay of my stream :-*
Ben you are hanging around with some total deviants and perverts ;D Both of you suck, I need to head that way soon. ;)
tranny is setting trip mines and pujji sticks in "his" creeks now. Awesome... bd;0
